It's all covered, but you probably need to read a lot of boring junk to find it.But didn’t I read correctly, or is none of the ‘assign file type’ stuff actually covered in the manuals?
There are two ways;
1) Use the desktop and filer - middle-click on the file icon in the filer and use the "Settype" menu - enter "BASIC" or its hex code "FFB".
2) From the commandline, the *settype command can be used. *settype myfile BASIC or *settype myfile FFB
You can also just load it in to BASIC if you really want - hit F12 to get to the command line and;
*BASIC
LOAD "filename"
SAVE "filename"
That will also set the file type to BASIC.
